    DO NOT MISS THIS PEOPLE.

    We've announced the party that will take us to the next level. This unique video game community is pushing towards a major milestone of 5,000 members, and this exciting event will be to celebrate all the great people that has made it happen.

    We're talking 12 hours of pure all-night gaming, music, food, drinks, friends, and fun right here in the center of the country, Des Moines, Iowa. From 7pm-7am, we'll be rocking a great time with great friends and we want YOU and your crew to join us! Here are the specifics...

    The "Sounds of GoG 5,000" and a GoG Collector Poster (18x12) will be given to all who attend!

    We're going to be welcoming DJ G Mint and Retro P, as we're excited to have two very cool spinning performances at 10pm and 3am to keep us jamming!

    NEW
    In addition to the many gaming stations at Cyber Ops, we've connected with Best Buy and members of this video game community to offer an entire 6v6 AND 4v4 multiplayer battle station! Look for tons of MW2 and Halo 3 on professional level 22' LED TVs here people! Bring your headphones and check our Equipment Sign-Up Discussion in the GoG Forum for more information Shocked

    A special thanks goes out to the host gaming center, Cyber Ops, and the speaker company that is bringing some serious SOUND to the event, elemental designs!

    This will be where the Ciroc vodka and Black Cherry Bombs will be flowing, along with gaming of course. Our friends at The Lime Lounge in Des Moines (www.limedsm.com) will host this event and we'll make it hot, I guarantee it.

    NEW
    We've connected with Joe's Photobooth, who will be providing a neat chance for us to capture the fun in our own photobooth, right inside of the Lime Lounge!

    NEW
    We've also announce that the New Super Mario Bros. Wii will be the main title being played at this PRE-GoG 5,000 Party, so look for a neat/unique, backwards/outside gaming challenge Wink

    For those of you outside of Iowa, this is worth traveling to attend and let me know if you need help making travel/accommodation arrangements. So far, we have people coming from Iowa, Minnesota, Missouri, Illinois, Nebraska, Colorado, and Texas...so JOIN US!

    I have to get a haircut at like 2:45 and then run home and take a shower since I have basketball that afternoon so I maybe be a few minutes late to the pre-party

    The pre-party was all-ages, I had thought. Maybe that changed?

    I should be bringing ZMaine up here, as usual, but I dunno if we'll be attending the pre-party. I'd like to get right to CyberOps so I can stake out a spot, get equipment setup, and make sure there are no unexpected technical difficulties regarding this stream I'm supposed to be doing. (I'm still doing that, right?)

    I'll be there without a doubt, but was wondering if it was cool if I met up with you at the Lime lounge or if it was still set for 21 and up.

    Oh HELL yes! I'm over here in Oklahoma, but I usually take road trips to see family in NY and Alabama. I'm going to end up bugging everybody to take a detour. XD

    I wanna go. But around the 1st of the year is a pain in the a** to try to get time off around here. *wonders if anyone has a couch I can crash on*
